Rest Assured: Digital Therapeutics for Insomnia & Mental Health 23 Oct 24

For over a decade, the Clinical Research Unit for Anxiety and Depression (CRUfAD) from St Vincents Hospital Sydney and UNSW has developed, tested, and disseminated iCBT programs for anxiety and depression, into routine care settings through its digital mental health service, THIS WAY UP.

Join Mary-Louise Singh and Katie Dobinson for this presentation, which will explore the advantages of integrating iCBT for insomnia into routine practice.

Insomnia is a common condition, and commonly occurs with other chronic health conditions (both physical and mental health).

Social workers practicing in adult mental health, disability, chronic care and rehabilitation, community health settings, child and family, young people and students may find this type of intervention useful help patients experiencing insomnia, as well as stress, anxiety and depression.
